The world is simply racing towards Prohibition. The explorers, north and south, go forth without alcolni. The athletes and physical culturi-ts arrive at the pink of condition without alcohol. The medical profession are daily conferring benefit on humanity, and as proved in hospital treatment, they do so without alcohol. Russia, France, Switzerland, Iceland, I'iteen of the States of America, and the greater part of Canada art* all under prohibitory law. The American Navy, the Japanese Navy, the- Greek Navy, and our own Commonwealth Navy are under prohibition. Alcohol is indeed a sick man ; he has one foot in the grave, and the other on a banana peel, and the* en dis drawing very near. —Exchange.
